I guess the problem is that the regulators aren't initialized when you
call regulator_get() before the i2c bus registration
I think the right thing is to do the regulator handling inside the
tsc2004 driver
The ADS7846 touchscreen driver (drivers/input/touchscreen/ads7846.c)
in combination with the TimLL Devkit8000 board
(arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-devkit8000.c) can serve you as a reference
